Evolution of an Online Forum for Knowledge Management Professionals
Using Wittgenstein's (1953, 1969) language game framework, we analyze the evolution of an online discussion forum of information systems professionals in India. Three major dimensions of the forum's language game are documented: roles, social identity, and linguistic style. Our analysis shows how rules of linguistic interaction emerge around these three dimensions and help to shape social order in the forum over time. The forum's developmental pa…

The first three theories attempt to specify the simtulus factors that produce the emergent structure characteristic of Gestalt phenomena. The fourth theoretical ap…
